Edge Hill University - National Scholarship Programme

What you get

During your first year at Edge Hill University in England, you received a cash payment of about 1,150 EUR (£1,000). In addition, you received a discount of approximately 2,300 EUR (£2,000) on your accommodation costs or tuition fees, bringing the total funding to around 3,500 EUR (£3,000). Part-time students received a pro-rata amount. The funding came from the National Scholarship Programme, a UK Government scheme administered through English universities to support high-achieving students from low-income households. Note: This was the 2013/14 round, and the programme has since been discontinued.
